Tried the famous “Kopi Luwak” coffee today at a cafe in Florence, Italy today.
Me, waiting for my coffee
Never heard of it? It was made famous by the movie “The Bucket List”. You can read about it HERE. I have seen it for sale before, but it’s usually by the 1/2lb, for about 50 euros. The cafe that I was in, offered an espresso for only 5 euros. I thought for that price, why NOT try it?
Kopi Luwak Espresso
And it’s GOOD. But as I told the owner of the place after trying it: it’s the most *expensive* coffee in the world, NOT the best. He agreed and offered to make me an espresso blend of 4 central american coffees.
The result?
He was right. It easily beat the Kopi Luwak in my opinion! Smoother and sweeter.
